Wireless Interconnected
Unlike traditional standalone detectors that only alert the room where smoke is detected, every unit in your interconnected network communicates seamlessly via a reliable wireless signal.
Simple Installation
No messy wiring to run through walls, no need to hire professional installers (and save on extra costs).
5 Years Warranty
No need to worry about premature malfunctions or unexpected issues: for 5 full years, we cover repairs or replacements if the detector fails under normal use.
FAQ
FAQ
Is Wisualarm’s detector kit fully compliant with the 2022 Scottish law?
Yes—Wisualarm’s smoke and heat detector kits are designed specifically for Scottish compliance, featuring wireless interlinking (no hardwiring hassle), BS-certified alarms, and easy installation, making them ideal for landlords needing a legally approved solution or homeowners upgrading safety.
Can I install the Wisualarm kit myself, or do I need an electrician?
While Wisualarm’s wireless kits are DIY-friendly (battery-powered with peel-and-stick mounting), hardwired installations in new builds or major renovations must be done by a qualified electrician per Scottish law. Our wireless option avoids this complexity while staying compliant.
What are the risks of non-compliance with this law?
Failing to install compliant alarms may invalidate insurance, trigger fines from local authorities, or cause licensing issues for landlords. Wisualarm’s kits eliminate guesswork with pre-tested, legislation-ready setups.
How do I maintain compliance after installation?
Test alarms monthly, replace batteries yearly (unless using sealed lithium models), and replace units every 10 years—Wisualarm detectors include low-battery alerts and meet lifespan requirements to ensure ongoing adherence.
